We can help you
get what you deserve.
Social Security disability is not
a handout or welfare.
You are entitled to it based on mandatory taxes
you've paid.
Increased Monthly Income:
Social Security provides a regular monthly payment.
This may also supplement any current disability
benefits you are already receiving. It also provides
annual cost-of-living increases. A portion of these
benefits may be tax free.
Medical Benefits:
Regardless of your age, after receiving SSDI
benefits for 24 months, you are eligible for
Medicare, including Part A (hospital benefits) and
Part B (medical benefits).
Prescription Drug Coverage:
Once you are entitled to Medicare, you are also
eligible for Medicare Part D, the prescription drug
plan.
COBRA
Extension:
If you receive Social Security disability benefits,
the length of your COBRA benefits may also be
extended an additional 11 months.
Protected Retirement Benefits:
Social Security disability entitlement “freezes”
Social Security earnings records during your period
of disability. Because those years will not be
counted when computing future benefits, your Social
Security retirement benefits will be higher.
Dependent Benefits:
If you receive Social Security disability benefits
and you have a dependent under age 18, he or she may
also be eligible for benefits.
Return-to-Work Incentives:
Social Security will provide you opportunities to
return to work while still paying you disability
benefits.
